Biff Gaut Consulting offers several services that can help your team deliver solutions, including:

Architectural Design and Review

Today's systems are extremely complex, even more so if based on the newest technologies from Microsoft. Utilizing these technologies to their fullest potential is essential in order for your team to deliver the best possible solution. Many teams, burdened with the workload of maintaining old systems and addressing business domain problems, simply don't have the bandwidth to maintain an in depth knowledge of all the new developments in the industry. Biff Gaut Consulting can come into your project, learn your business needs and help you capitalize on technologies like .NET, Web Services and BizTalk Server. We can help you design new systems that will electrify your customers or examine your existing designs for issues such as scalability, performance, maintenance and management.

Technical Management and Leadership

At the beginning of any major project, all teams face a tremendous number of unknowns. If you're beginning a new project and sense a lack of cohesive direction, call on Biff Gaut Consulting to bring leadership to your project. We can help with the big conceptual issues, like helping your team determine a shared vision, as well as the more concrete details, such as how the team will handle code reviews, unit testing and planning.

Project Rescue

Let's face it, some projects are just broken. The paths by which a project can get into trouble are as numerous as there are projects, but the solution lies not in assigning blame and pointing fingers but in rolling up the sleeves; identifying the problems and implementing solutions. As an impartial outsider, Biff Gaut Consulting can come in and evaluate a project's problems and conceptualize solutions with no preconceived notions and hidden personal agendas. A fresh start like this can turn a project on life support back into a vital rewarding experience for the team and a success for the client.

Training

Biff Gaut Consulting has developed several short training courses for teams to help them with software processes and technical issues. Some of these courses include Unit Testing for Fun and Profit; How To Review Code and Still Be Friends in the Morning; and Introduction to SOAP.

Coding

Finally, your solution is only as good as the code that creates it. Biff Gaut Consulting can join your team and attack your most difficult coding problems in a variety of technologies and languages such as Visual C++, C# and Visual Basic.
